I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Ansys (Pune) in Feb 2011
Interview
It started with a telephonic round which involved some very basic discussions. Once cleared the person is invited to the company. One presentation followed by some technical rounds are done. After undergoing through these technical rounds finally HR round happens.
Technical questions are mainly focused on the physics and cfd understanding and less of programming. HR round is routine.

Question 1
Prove that limit theta tends to zero sin(theta) / (theta) tends to one?
Interview process consisted of basic OOP, some leetcode mediums, and also some general chat with recruiters. Overall a very smooth process and definitely recommend. There were also some tree questions and general engineering questions.
Went through several interviews without real interest from the company side. Did take-home code challenge and wasnt even read (explicitly said by interviewer).
A waste of time, next time I will ask to do more interviews before or not do the code challenge and waste 4 hours to not even receive feedback on the solution
